Hi there!
We’re 26 Seasons and we’re here to shake
up the usual growth cycle limitations of the food you know and love, so you can eat your seasonal favourites – off season. Sound unnatural? Couldn’t be further from it. Our planting practices allow a full growth cycle every two weeks (for microgreens), allowing you to eat fresh microgreens and strawberries at the peak of their nutrients.
Our microgreens are available all year round and our strawberries are available in the off season.
We’re redefining the seasons and what it means to eat fresh!
What Are Microgreens?
When a seed starts to grow, we say it sprouts or germinates. That first growth (or microgreen) is more flavourful and nutrient dense than the mature plant. If we harvest that first growth before it gives way to the plant itself we call enjoy all of those nutrients in unique and delicious ways.
Indoor vertical farmed microgreens are for nourishment, nature and bursting with flavour. Delicate to the eye, soft to the touch but packed with goodness, our microgreens offer up to 100x more nutrients than mature plants.
It’s The Smartest Way To Eat
Our Indoor Vertical Farms
And we’re for the planet too! In one of New Zealand’s very first urban farms, our innovative farming methods are paving the way to a new future of food production in our country. We believe in having minimal impact to the planet, so we use NO herbicides, pesticides, chemicals or soil and recycle our water (and that’s just the start). We’re redefining what it means to grow food that is pure and full of life without compromising on taste or our whenua (or land).
How To Look After Your Microgreens
Handy Care Tips
These are living plants (the freshest you can get) so need a little bit of love and care for you to enjoy them at their best.
Eating them straight away? They’re good to go, just harvest with scissors by cutting 1-2cm from the roots.
Once fully harvested, discard the roots and grow mat, these microgreens are not designed to regrow.
Storage - Our microgreens prefer room temperature, so keep them on the bench or windowsill.
Watering - Simply submerge the bottom of the watering tray in a sink with water for 20-30 seconds, once a day. Avoid watering the leaves.
Recycling - The wool grow mat is compostable. The tray is fully curbside recyclable.
